Whatever the recording, audio just wants to be heard: the trick is picking a shape that plays where you need it. It was born in wherever your microphone, DAW or download came from, and its real weak spot is nothing in particular; the limits belong to whichever format it happens to be wearing.
WAV is audio with nothing taken away: every sample intact, every megabyte accounted for. Raw PCM samples in a RIFF wrapper. No compression of any kind. That makes it the right destination when what you need is recording, editing and mastering, where every last bit matters.
